Had a bit of a blocked nose and cough last night so was not feeling 100% but it was a beautiful hit sunny day in nagasaki so went to oura cathedral first then to glover garden which is having a lantern festival at night and offers some great views

Lanterns in glover garden

I began to feel a little lethargic so decided to skip thr confucious shrine and headed back to the hotel via the seaside park abd the wharf. Sat fir a while and felt better


View from the seaside park

had some payments to make so had a quiet after noon and felt better so had an early dinner and went up mt inasayama. Just missed the bus so took a taxi for 2000y
views of nagasaki at sunset and as the lights come on are magnificent and it got busier as sunset approached


View of nagasaki as sunset approached and the low kevel areas went into shade first. It was a little cool.after the sun went down but the fleece was fine

Towers changed colour to green every 30mins Queue for the ropeway was long but no wait for the slope car to the car park and waited 5mins for the bus to leave The road down from the slopecar station is curvy and steep in bits ( almost like a miniature victoria peak drive in hong kong
